Royal recognition of Manchester University: the King receiving an address, 1909. 'While on his way to the new Manchester Royal Infirmary, the King stopped outside Manchester University, and received an address read by the Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Hopkinson. In the course of his reply to this, his Majesty said, "I am glad that in Manchester the cause of learning and research is united with that of practical benevolence, and I doubt not that the fortunate alliance of a great University with a great hospital will continue, as heretofore, to confer inestimable benefit alike on those who seek in them the fruits of advancing knowledge and enlightenment, and those who resort to them for relief from suffering and distress." At the Infirmary, the royal carriage was drawn up at the entrance to the out-patients' department. In the carriage with the King and Queen were Princess Victoria and Mr. Haldane, who was the Minister in attendance.' From "Illustrated London News", 1909.
